Any experienced small business crafter knows that mockups – or computer made photos of your products – can save a lot of time and supplies. By creating mockups, you can show a customer what their custom order will look like, give customers color and design options to choose from, and even create professional looking product photos for your shop without ever taking a picture.
On the Cutting for Business blog, I’ve written about mockups several times. However, one thing I’ve never shared is where to buy blank photos to use to make mockups. Today, I’m sharing that list.
4 Places to Buy Blank Mockup Images
- Any stock photo site. Adobe Stock is my personal favorite, but I have a list of stock photo sites at this link.
- Creative Market. This often overlooked site for fonts and digital goods has 100,000K plus listings for mockups. A quick caution: Be sure to read what type of program you need to have to use the mockups. Some will require Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator.
- Placeit.net. I love Placeit and use it often for the free cut files on Cutting for Business. I think it’s perfect for anyone that doesn’t have technical photo editing skills – and no interest in learning them. Head to this blog post if you want to learn more.
